INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indianapolis Public Library Glendale Branch on Monday will host a Haitian cultural occasion.
Faucet Faucet Night, the culminating occasion of the monthlong Haitian Creole Language and Tradition Summer time Program hosted by the department, has promised an immersive expertise into Haiti’s tradition via arts, storytelling, and the rhythmic beats of the tanbou drum.
